Did it sink? :( :p
Not sure what I'm doing today. Have to pop over the parents' place soon to wake the parrot up (already daylight so he'll be moaning, tough cookie!), then need to clear the flat up as much as poss for wiring of network cables and the loss adjusters' visit monday.
But I'm knackered after only 4 hours sleep so might wake the parrot up by snoring at it ;D

We just tried to take Pebbles Cat outside with her new harness on but she was having none of it and scampered back indoors ;D
Its still there, just theres not much light on it. It better stay around :)
Ah, there's more light now, can see it!
Er, what boat is it? :)
Just come back from the gym, had a shower and am going to pick up my bestest buddy in a bit, because she's come home from Sweden for the week. Haven't seen her in over a year and I'm silly excited!! Meeting up with another of my "home" mates later and we're having a meal/wine/sleep round her house. Woohoo!!! :D xxxx
Just got up as I took sleeping pills last night :o Feeling better for it though :)
Just going to grab a shower, throw some washing in the machine and go for a walk - its actually sunny so even though I have no where to go, I'm going to walk. Times like this I wish I didn't live in such a built up area, or that I could drive so I could get out of the town for a bit.
Had someone's cat follow me half way home last night, across roads and everything. Had to try and scare it away in the end to stop it following me. :'(
Anyway, I'm off out today to do some shopping in this gawjus sunshine (75 minutes walk in either direction - unless I get something too heavy to walk with in which case it's a £8 taxi back), then it's back to attacking the house. Going to try and speed things up and get the new bed in next week. :eek:
Ah, there's more light now, can see it!
Er, what boat is it? :)
Its a big pwetty grey one with guns and sailors that can do 0-60 in 5.3 seconds. Honestly, dunno. Its not been mention on the local news sites. Maybe its a stealth boat and no-ones noticed.
Just been to the Snow Festival in Sapporo over the last few days. Just chilling out and putting some pictures online, then off to Nagano tonight to go snowboarding for the weekend.
Freezing my bollocks off though!
Ah ha, excellent. Though my Canon > their canon ;)
It's really nice weather here but unfortunately I haven't really got anywhere to go as all my friends seem to be struggling over mountains of coursework. Damn trainee doctors being busy :p
Just getting ready to watch the Newcastle v Villa match on tv, then it's round a mates house to help him set up his wireless network followed by beer, food and GH3 :D
It's exhaust day! We have to remove four exhausts and refit three.
At current time of writing, two have been removed and one refitted. Humphrey has been picked up from the bodyshop and is about to be taken for his retest.
I have polished four tailpipes and a backbox :D

Episode 8 of American Dad season 2.
Well I cleaned the interior of the Focus, now looks good. Also fixed my old Samsung laser printer and that's now working again.
Tomorrow will be sanding and washing walls, gym and sorting out stuff to take to the dump
I ended up walking around town for six hours today. Now thoroughly knackered.
Did pick up a few containers that will help with the clearout. Carrying them home was fun. :)
I had such a lovely day. Its weird being a photographer. What I love most is simply light. The light today was incredible. It started off with me playing around in the bathroom. Oh ya :D Lots of vapor in the air from the shower. It was like blowing clouds around due to the light coming through the window. Then I went to town and again, stunning light. The way it bounced off buildings, caused rays of lights in town and caused people to glow. It was just lovely. Crisp winter light. I got photos of HMS Bulwark and a lovely couple just by it. I saw a marine and his gf leave the boat so I had to ask for a photo. I was hoping he was returning home after a tour at sea, meeting his gf after months away. Annoyingly they were just visiting friends so the whole romanticism went out the window. I got a lovely photo of them though. I also covered some Chinese New Year events at the museum. Dragons grabbing kids from the audience and trying to eat them. They loved it. The drive home at sunset was stunning. Its funny how much light affects the world. I love lamp... no wait, light :D
Just got back from my first cheescagos visit for ages :D
Was quality fun, even a girly fight on the podium, but the bouncers finished it :angry::evil:
Me tankered :D
I'm going to a meet this afternoon :) a rat meet :) It is mainly for the owners but a few people normally bring their pets along to be spoilt :)
After the meet I'll be popping round the corner to see a very sexy lady who knows the way to my heart (aka books :o )

Am loving Forza2 it suits me perfectly, I put a post up begging for money last night & got a Million quid off an Oc member to trick my cars up :cool: I also got myself a plug & play kit & a 20gb Hard drive & i have activated a 48hr live voucher.

At this precise moment, I'm shamelessly avoiding work and watching the progress of the Celtic match on the interweb. Shift finishes in 1/2 an hour then it's food, meeting, more interweb, shower and bed.

Rob and I walked into Greenwich and had a look at the markets :) bought my mum a present and some legging jeans off of a Japanese lady on one of the market stalls. :) Also had a crepe for lunch ;) naturally... mmmmmm!
Spent £30 :/ arghghhh!!!
Lovely day though... we walked from my place through Greenwich park and then to the markets and we are vegging now after running this morning too :) before we go to Rob's bros for sunday lunch :cool:

Good luck for tomoz Jen, sure it'll go great :D
Thank you Nutcase :)
I'll make sure to post here tomorrow to say how it went :D
Home :) Been weed on, slept on, washed, groomed, bruxed and boggled at and had my hair munched :) Had one rat sat in my hood all afternoon - was a brilliant meet :)
I also now have some funky house signs made by Loz and a copy of Wings by Pratchett which I haven't actually read before :shocked:
Managed to jar my neck as there is a nicely hidden speed bump round the corner from Lozza's house so I'm going to head to bed soon so I can put a heat pack on it :(
I don't even know about the speed bump. Hope your not in too much pain!
Just on the entrance to the road just along from your house. I'll be ok by tomorrow I hope - neither Mic or I saw it as the paint lines/arrows/whatever have all faded. He was swinging round to park and just caught half of it a bit too fast.
Im watching Jaws2, or trying to over the snoring coming from the sofa.
I've spent this weekend geeking with Linux. If I have to watch Ubuntu install one more sodding time I'm going to explode.
Just finished work, warned the PM i'm now doing weekend working as well (it'll cripple financials) but tough bananas, give me competant team leads and there would be no problem.
On the subject of tough bananas, my main machine has decided to blow up :/ Its getting on now but its about 1 month before the next uber processors come out. I think I can patch it up but its not something I have time for at the moment.

Tonight I actually ate dinner :/
Im watching Jaws2, or trying to over the snoring coming from the sofa.
You should talk to MFI about that sofa. I'm fairly sure they're not meant to snore. ;) Today, in an hour, I'll be on the streets of Liverpool doing something stupid. 2 students are filming me doing street photography. Street photography being one of the hardest types for me because it requires you to get close to moments and photograph them. Its hard enough on a normal day, but today I'm being filmed. But then I chose this because its a way of forcing me to push past my fears. I'm already feeling insecure about it because my small 50mm lens is broken and its such a perfect street photography lens because its tiny. I'll look like a paparazzi photographer and feel out of place. Grrr. All I can do is hope the pain from my wisdom tooth blocks all that out :D Which is another bad thing. Only have 2 weeks to fix that before the exhibition which is now just "1 week on Friday" even though its just under 2. 1 week.... Oh and I'm giving a talk on Wednesday night so I can't have this tooth out till Thursday if need be. So yey, pain while being filmed and giving a talk. Oh yeah.

I'm currently sat in work (booo), however with it being half term it means there are no nasty kids and pretty much no teachers anywhere (yay!). We were given work to do this week by my boss, and we've rationed it out over the week. So far today, we've already finished our share while watching Battlestar Galactica. Hopefully a nice easy rest of the day while waiting to be kicked out early by the caretakers who want to be here even less than we do :D
When I was a caretake I loved being on site with nothing to do. Racked up wicked overtime ;D
Ok, so someone had to be there cos people hired the place out, but still nowt to do.

I am Messing :party2:
I've got **** all on today so i planned on a Big house work session, trust me it needs it, there is crap everywhere in my house at the mo, All the crap out my old jeep is spread all over the kitchen floor, my Massive dining room table (have a lot of dinner partys then do we Malc :D **** Off ;D) is covered in crap, There is Literally only about enough for one person to sit there with a cup of tea only. My washing up is an unsamountable pile of china & metal :confused: My washing is a pile of festering cheesey not nice man stuff, my whole world is about to collapse around me in a sea of dirty washing & unwashed crockery, I am going to Die if i don't do it today.
So i thought "**** that" lets go down the shops & get a VGA cable for my sexbox, I got one brought it back & need a Female VGA - VGA thingymewotsit now :( I was going to let it go & wait till i got the KVM that Nok is sending me but No i cannot handle it & will have to go down town & get one just to do it, You know how these things are when you get them in your head.
Boys & there toys a :cool:
Of course me using my sexbox through my monitor means i will have to switch around Everything in my front room to incorporate it how i want it :confused: Last time i did it 6 hours passed before i was able to sit down & chill again :shocked:
Working, then gym, then I think a bubblebath when I get home are my plans for the day.
Tesco delivery between 7 and 9 - not sure whether to be lazy and get ready meals/take away so its easy to fit in around the delivery, or cook a chilli.

Uni over for the day, my parcel from e-bay arrived. Childhood nostalgia in 4 packets of Nerds! AMAZING! They are just as tooth rottingly sweet and e-numberishious as i remember.
Supposed to be tidying the house, as I have been supposed to be doing the last two days. Been ill all of it. Meds not working. Taking time off work too so I really should be doing something. What can I say? :(

All the best laid plans go to waste.
Went down town, Spent an hour looking around the shops for an adapter & none of them had one the Big Gayers. Spoke to Nokkon on MSN & he is sending me a KVM so I'm just going to have to wait. I think i have a plan for my front room which i will impliment some time soon, Well once i have it clear in my head anyway. I've even drawn it out on a sheet of A4, I am a Proper Geek these days ;D
If you need a hand moving stuff around dude, let us know and I'll give you a hand. I know how annoying it is as I moved my bedroom around the other month which included mounting my lcd on the wall, cutting a unit that holds the DVD player etc. down and sorting out the wiring :( looks good now though :D
Today has been more boring spreadsheets after boring spreadsheets. The outlook for tomorrow is the same
Feeling a bit better, so one crate of stuff empty, another ongoing. Once I've got these crates shifted, things should accelerate, as I'll have somewhere to put stuff to keep.
Probably going to take most of the week off now and do this thing, as I'll not be able to do any next week and the bed arrives Monday the week after. :shocked: :)
Today I've mostly been pretending to arrest people for nawty traffic offences and making a right old pigs ear of it! Oh well, brutality training tomorrow, how hard than that be?!
They train you to be brutal?

I'm going on a school trip to JCB today with Uni. How very exciting. I might buy a digger :p

God I love half terms when no teachers are around. Strolled in arond 8:20 (I'm meant to be in for 8), and got a text from my work mate to tell me he's not feeling well so he won't be in till tomorrow, so I'm on my own all day. I decided to crack on with todays work, and instead of it taking all day (a pc rebuild to fix an annoying problem) I figured out the problem inside 2 minutes. I can't really do any other work as it's all stuff that'll be soo much quicker when all 3 of us are in tomorrow, so I'm currently listening to the Foo's, surfing the web, and counting down the time till I can go home. I wish every week was like this, I'd quite enjoy work then :D

Laying on the sofa feeling grotty with my 2nd sick day off. Wathing Simple Life. Even though I probably dont mean this Im glad I go to work sometimes, I get so bored lazing about! I fancy a nice walk in a bit as its beautiful out and yesterday I didnt leave the room!
Steam cleaning a fan. No, I kid you not. Copious amounts of black stuff came off. Won't help the bedroom clearout, might help my health.
Don't worry, I won't be plugging it in for at least a week, and when I do, it'll be on a breaker and outside. If it don't work, no loss really. :)
Edit - Failed at getting the bedroom sufficiently cleared before going away, so I'll have to ring the company tomorrow and grovel for another week (they did agree I could have the time but was hoping to get it done sooner). I now have a full bin and a pile high enough to fill the bin twice more (three times once I get shredding again). Empty crates at last too - so I have room to put stuff. \o/
Sitting being dizzy and achey cos the paracetomol have worn off, and probably ought to wait another hour or so before the next dose. Meh!
Meantime added 2gb of ram to my main pc, making it have 3. Noticed how cheap ddr2 was, and found that's what this thing has, so went for it :D Loads stuff lots quicker now, so looks like a worthwhile feat.
Also scribbling rough network cabling ideas, and have some wall plug things for running cables through. Was hoping they take two cables, but alas only one (and the doubles only take 3, not 4). But hey, they're cheap :)

I have wine and my usual bad/confused mood...
Having a brown trouser moment. :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
Was up at the bedroom window pulling remnants of the old net curtain fixings off the wall when *all* the lights (inside and out) go out and there's an almighty flash through the bedroom window. I was waiting for the bang and the shattering glass, but it didn't come (thank god). The flash came from the local electricity substation which is about 30 yards away from my house.
Anyway, I got the remnants off and two new net poles are up. And the power is back on too. I don't think the substation is meant to generate its own lightning though. :)
Just a bit of last-minute packing to sort out now.
Just sorting out my desk making sure everything is up to date as I leave at 3.50 today :D only downside is I have to go home, get changed, pack a bag and drive from Leicester to Feltham :( Traffic is going to be a bitch. I'm only doing this as my sister has flown in from the states and instead of landing yesterday, the flight was cancelled meaning she landed today and muggins here has to take her down south :(
Being stressed and overwrought at work :(
Between 2 phones ringing continually, the door going every 5 minutes and no one else being able to open it, stupid staff, irritating relatives and braindead delivery guys I'm ready to snap. I'm thinking of putting something over my head, going "LALALALALA" as loud as possible and doing the "if I can't see you, you can't see me" routine
Not even got the work I'm meant to do, done today :/
I'm having fun identifying spammers on a mail relay.
I say fun. Its akin to taking a very sharp nail and repeatedly stabbing myself in the eyes with it. Its a horrible job on such a busy platform to weed out the good from the bad. I have just found the biggest sod, a customer running an open relay that was stacking up mass loads of e-mail on one server in the cluster (31,337 to be precise, all now gone.)

So i am sandwiched in between two rads waiting to be toasted. Already smoking a J just for the sheer hell of it so today will be a Messed up Hibernating day for me.

Been to Bluewater where I tried to take back some boots, but the sales girl ended up giving me half the money back aswell as the boots.
So I now have 2 pairs of boots which are the same but different colours - I am still confused... I may have to 'hide' the second pair so I have a 'new' pair this time next year ;)
So I technically saved £100 on two pairs of boots...hmmm!

I'm trying to recover from this weekend. Drove my sister to Feltam Friday night, stayed over night had a curry (not that nice) and got drunk. Slept on the floor in a hotel room which was not comfortable at all. Drove back home Saturday about 11ish in the morning. Sunday relaxed and I then drove back down south to drop my sister off at Heathrow followed by driving straight back (about 100 and something miles each way). I'm now on my last legs so gonna get some shut eye for a bit.
Currently waiting for a bird from Ramada Jarvis hotels to attend a meeting she booked with me for 11.30.

No choice, there's a massive exhibition on at the same time which the company always goes to. At least the food is always good out there :D
Another couple of hundred miles clocked up :)
Hove via Leytonstone.
Tomorrow is Hove via Colchester. At least Leytonstone was SOUTH. I get to go the wrong way first tomoz!
Oh, and got to watch the shenanigans at the dartford tunnels today. They were closed briefly after a lorry did something bad (not sure what, but it smelt a little of burning).
I was the first person not to get let through so had to sit at the barrier for a while nattering to the lady in the booth.
Was quite wierd having a totally M25 to play with when they finally started letting people through. Damn having a tracker, could have had great fun!

So it was you that broke my friggin' interweb yesterday!
Should've realised considering that you were round the corner from my house :p
I'm just playing/writing on a game that I should have reviewed by now, while I wait for my indian takeaway to arrive :D
Then I'll be spending the evening probably watching TV with the parents.

I've gone all Gay the last few days. Got my new oven installed the other day & slung the old one out in the yard. Baking trays an all, there in the yard & new ones are on the firm.
New oven is a stainless steel jobby with a foglight with is as cool as ****. Never thought I'd be excited & chatting/posting about an oven but there you go.
I'm currently on my 4th load of washing today & I'm having a major sort out all over the house. S'pose you could call today a Domestic Gay Day :cool:
Was out on the yard this morning tweaking my motor doing a few jobs etc & generally Larking about.
Now i am sitting in my dressing gown getting messed up watching crap tv & spamming :)
Going to the gym shortly, then overseeing the installation of our new gate (by my Dad ;) ) and then we're off to see some mates :) I can just tell this weekend is going to ZOOOOOOOOOM by.

Weekend plans:
Washing and washing up to be done, dry clothes to be packed away, WSB to be taped, rats cages to be cleaned out (hopefully resulting in there only being 2 cages with rats in rather than 3), mass vac of the house, home check to be done for a rescue, and then wii to be played :)

Having my first J of the day ;D
Then i am going to walk Frank, I love walking him when i am messed up as i just drift of & we wander about chatting to whatever random i bump in to.
We have some Graet characters on my dog walk route. There is this women that pushes her mum up the local shop i see about quite a bit. The pusher looks about 40'ish but i found out the other day she is 55 :shocked: The old biddy in the chair who looks like one of those finger puppetts is about 83 :shocked:
I see them down town yesterday & crepted up behind them & then Shouted COME ON GET A BLOODY MOVE ON WITH THAT THING WILL YA!!!! ;D
They love it as i don't think many people shoot the breeze with them. I found out that the pusher has only been coming out of her house since her Ma has been in the wheelchair :huh: Weird family obviously but i don't care who you are I am talking to you :p
I also have the standard being dragged along by my dog women everybodys got, You know the sort, Dog dragging her towards you wagging its tail, her trying to stop it all flustered with legs spread but still being dragged along :D
She is really funny to watch.
Today will be a Funny day for me, I was booked in to help my mates Mum with some Tree felling yard sorting as she is a recent widow & needs the support/help. But that's been put of as the skip didn't turn up. I've helped her before a few weeks ago it's mad & a real eye opener. This lovely old women has been with her man all her life & now he has died. The aftermath of sorting through a mans life long possesions when you are hurting inside must be tuff for anyone let alone a frail old lady in her senior years :(
I'm happy to help me & it's nice being around her having some Banter & helping her out. Perfect cups of teas, Brilliant bacon sarnys & a warm heart is my reward :cool:
I like being Malc :)
This weekend I'm turning my study into a proper office for me to work from. Am also shifting things so there is a space for a pole to practice on.
Apart from that am putting up posters advertising my business and website.

Well technically the opposite as I got lovely overtime pay :D wooh!
After a busy night last night I'm having a veg-out day :)
So far watched Great St. Trinians Train Robbery, Die Hard with a vengance and just trying to decide what to watch next :)
Not even going to bother getting dressed today :cool:
Cooking lasagne, then going for a bath, then beginning mass panic as I have the dentist tomorrow :confused: :'(
I had only just got use to my old dentist - after 5 years I could go and see him and not end up a blubbing wreck (still was scared sh*tless though :o ) but he has moved on so I have to see a new one - cue panic attacks/crying/shaking :'( I don't want to go!!! and I'm going to have to put anything on my credit card as I'm already in the neg this month :(
The family Daniels is watching Deep Impact. Then food will be prepared, before an evening of total idleness!
And I finished my book *grumps* The only good thing about this is I've found another good author I like :)
We've vegged out for the afternoon and will do exactly the same for the evening :D
Bath. Bed.
Hopefully that will actually happen tonight as KOed on the train just now.

I just carried 8 big heavy books back from the library it weighed hundreds! But i feel like i've actually made an effort.
85 minutes before the appointment :'(
I'm waiting for a phone call back from an office suppliers to see if they have part of a chair in stock so we can fix the MD's chair as it's almost broken. As soon as they do yes I'll be off to pick it up, making a slight detour on the way back to the office to pick up my new amp :D :D
Spent the weekend back around my parents place, had to go back and sort some stuff out. Left the house on Saturday ridiculously early (7am), cycled over to London Bridge (6+ miles through the city, woo, fun.) then perched on my bike for the 50 minute journey down. Went home, dumped some stuff off, got a few initial bits sorted out then cycled over to see Kari at the missions base she's working at. Forgot that although its only 4 miles, 3 1/2 miles of it are up hill. Took me about 40 mins. I've gotten rather used to cycling through fairly flat London. Popped over to Crawley and got some shoes, then chilled out for the afternoon meeting the folks she's working with at the base, watched Hitchikers Guide To The Galaxy in the evening projected onto a large wall.. Great movie and we all joined in with Karaoke during the credits "So long and thanks for all the fish, so sad that is should come to this"..
Woke up early on Sunday and started getting the bits done I'd primarily come down to do, finished around 4 o'clock, popped over to see Kari for a couple of hours and then headed back up to London.
Went to bed early but got kinda caught up reading about McCarthyism on wikipedia.

Broken another bit of curtain finally getting them back up. Grr at perishing bits of plastic. :/
Will have to go try and source a new set of curtain hooks. Just hope I can find the same sort as these are 15 years old.
Now off to strip the bed and (hopefully temporarily) remove some bedding to see if that's contributing to allergies. :(

Feeling a bit more positive today due to the fact that I'm into single figures for days left on the rig. Get off next Thursday and home on the Friday. Dunno what it is but this whole trip I've just felt meh and couldn't be bothered. I've been grumpy and irritable for the best part of 3 weeks now, hopefully I'll start to come out of it now the end is in sight.
/Whinge over.
Stripped my bed of most of its luxuries this morning to see if they're the cause of allergies. I really hope not, because I've spent soo much on the stuff (including new for the new bed - though at least I can return that if I get an affirmative answer within the next week).
At least I did, eventually, get some of the 'day job' done last night, so don't feel so guilty now. :)
I HAVE THE DAY OFF!!! :D

Gotta clean the bathroom and do some washing then seeing Rob as he's back from hols.

I've just spent £200 on my first decent camera, quite scared for some reason, even though I very rarely treat myself.
I just had some training on Data Protection and found out that I didn't need to pay my Freehold Managers monies owed from last year and that it is the fault of my solicitors as they had not updated my data.

Seeing friends at the weekend. Then Mummy on Sunday.
Dust. Everywhere. Really struggling because everything I move sets off an explosion of dust. Got an air filter running but it isn't doing a whole lot. Had the windows open but that just blew the dust into the rest of the house. Oh well, it'll be over soon (until I start the next room). :)
How good is the filter on you vac? Might be worth having that running with the nozzle pointing at where you're working. Ideally you want a hepa filter on it.
Not great. It's supposed to be hepa but I suspect the seal isn't as good as it could be now given the vac's age. I may well use the vac to shift the worst of it though - good idea. I'll be vaccing and possibly steam cleaning the carpet as soon as I get chance.
The air filter is supposed to be hepa as well. I'm going to replace the filter in it once this is all over as I'd imagine it's a bit clogged by now. :)

Well today I've been out to the shops to buy a new iron as our old one decided to empty it's water tank out of the base plate and will be attacking the enormous pile of ironing that's needed doing for around 3 weeks :o
I don't understand this word...ironing? :huh:
I don't understand this word...ironing? :huh:
I think Alanis sang a song about it or something. Isn't it ironing... Petey tired.
I ironed a shirt once!
Haha! I missed out the r just then. Good job I proof-read it!
Today has been a day of washing (three loads!), gymming, and then vegging. And making meat-based breakfast recipes. :D
Bedroom update: Bomb site, again, but I can use cupboards again now. Running out of places to put stuff to get it out the way. There's always the garage I guess. Nearly jumped out of my skin when a money spider decided to appear when I picked up a box. No idea how it got there or even if it was alive (though it sure moved like it was). :o
Looks like I'll have to admit defeat on getting the furniture where I want it - though I could put the mattress on the floor and sleep on that for a few days.
PS - if anyone tells you Duracell batteries can't leak, they're wrong.

South London :/
I had SO much to do yesterday and ended up spending the day going round in circles and achieving pretty much nothing.
First off, my folks are away so I had to feed the cats.... only I realised that I'd left their keys in the hire car I had on Wednesday :eek: so I had to drive into Leics to fetch them.
Tried to fire up Mum's old computer for the last time to back-up Sage and her Ancestry progs, and the motherboard made that beautiful electric fire smell and died. Bought the wrong HSF from PC World (didn't open it though, phew!) and had to go out and get another. Couldn't get the HSF on the motherboard because I'm a wimp. Had to get a new PSU and then a new case because the current case is too bloody small. Finally got round to installing Windows and then got drunk :D Woke up at 4am because of the wind outside and I'm now posting in safe mode whilst I "take control" of all the folders on the old hard drive. I'm just praying that Sage/Historian are recoverable :/
So, to make up for the COMPLETE waste of yesterday, today I need to get ingredients for meal tonight and general food shop, cook bits in advance and make soda bread, tidy/clean house, finish making Mum's apron, finish comp rebuild and make meal for tonight. All plans of going to the gym are out the window! Today is going to be busy :D

Just got back from the olds' after a nice roast dinner (not sure why my Mum has to cook a roast on Mother's day, but me and my Dad weren't complaining!).
Also finally did a bit more on Bluey the beigemobile. Really need to give my friendly welder a shout soon though...

Spent Saturday night with Tak and Jhadur playing silly buggers on their new toys. Realised I need to get out more as was a bit of a geek on Scene It !!!.
Sunday was visiting Mummy.
Today just doing chores and exercises.
Well I was going to clean the kitchen but I've just had a lovely glass of red and am feeling far too warm and fuzzy for cleaning!
Last night I went to Dans Le Noir. Its a restaurant where you eat in the dark.
Not dark - PITCH BLACK!!!
It was great - they had a Morrocan menu that evening, which I was a bit dubious about as I don't know what I am eating when I eat Morrocan in the daylight, but it was delicious!
Very bizarre - one of those things you do once... especially when the bill came to £40 :/ and that was with a non alcoholic cocktail which was a fiver!
The waiters are all blind people so they work the darkness better than seeing people and they guide you everyway, but it must be very frustrating for them as this is their life but to us its a 'novelty' :(
Very interesting evening... then we went to Tinseltown 24 Hour Diner for milkshake!! :D

I read in a magazine not too long ago about a restaurant where they give you headphones and you choose sounds to listen to during your meal - like the seaside and stuff like that. Sounded interesting.
I'm looking forward to getting off the rig on Thursday and home on Friday. Have ordered Tesco stuff to arrive Friday evening and have plans for Saturday night and Sunday. Beyond that, not much - just chillin' for the first week home probably.
Busy busy busy busy. Guardian wants a TON of shots for some article they're doing on Liverpool. I think I'm going to have to take the whole of Wednesday off to sort things. Hopefully my sister will be ok with that as she's covering the gallery. Still a fair amount of stress and it doesn't help things when I read about a recent horror stories regarding the Guardian n copyright. Oh my gawds its cold too.
I just got IDed in tescos for a bottle of wine - where they have the "Think 21" policy, she said I was borderline (or maybe I looked like I needed cheering up...)

I'm sitting hear spamming trying to get my mate out of my mind. I found out at the weekend that she died of an OD & it's been on my mind ever since. She was my Madonna, That won't mean much to you lot but i have a habit of associating X girlfs with famous people. Kim had a body & hair like maddy & bought me that Silver book maddy done years ago with the pics in it. She was a lovely decent girl with proper parents & as i think back now we would sit cuddled up on her bed in her pink room that hadn't changed since she was a little girly getting proper wasted, Of course normal people would have been playing tunes or doing homework but not us we had other places to go :(
Her Ma would shout her from the bottom of the stairs and have a tray of Tea & Bickys for us the whole scene is so surreal now when i look back on it.
Now she is another name on my long list of dead people i once new loved & cared for :'(

Me tired...
edit: HSE = Health and Safety Executive btw :) And they can cause big trouble if they find anything wrong with an asbestos removal project. And being that this is a big job in a hospital that's still active, and is pipe lagging which is one of the worst to remove...).

Today i have been mostly paying bills. TV Licence (*****), Water, BB/TV/HousePhone, Petrol in jeep, tick bill :'(
Hit me so hard i had to get a Double decker & a Star Bar for a quick Choccy fix. Been helping me Sister on & off all week with tip runs, garden clearances moving crap about etc. Seen a few friends & spent a little more time with my nice local mates this week as i was in need of some closeness.
A few visits round my mate Rob/Jane/Chloe/Jarrins house gave me that family closenss matey feeling again so I am all good :)
I've had a great week with the Ladys :cool: I'm courting the 2 fittys & playing it Uber cool which is Superb as there's Loads of banter & chat & flirting.
I had my spontaneous rendevous mid week with an Easy Rider & i am being Yawped at by passing female motorists so there's life in the old dog yet :D
I am particularly proud of myself this week as well but it's a bit hard to explain why as to you it would mean nothing. I'm trying to think of an analogy that would fit the bill. Basically i got my balls out & put them on this blokes desk this week real Humble like. Like a statement to him & to other business men i know that Now is the time to Employ me. I have had good responce from doing this & the word back is that a few are Mighty impressed that I did it & how i did it :)

Last time i had to sort my whole front room out & re arrange everything around my sexbox linking it up with everything. The thought of doing it all again Blows my tiny mind :p
So much for me going to bed early. I'm going to be so knackered. Oh well - will try to sleep on the train. :)

I'm still in work/GMT+2 mode so was asleep by 21:30 last night and awake at 05:30 this morning. Usually takes me a couple of days to get into non-work/GMT mode.

Well last night me, Rob and some people from work went to watch St Helens vs Hull FC. Shocking performance by the saints to start with but things got better and we romped to the hooter leading 22-14. Second half faired similar to the first (bad tackling and a drop goal) we ended up 28-28 with around a minute left. Thankfully Hull were very helpful and handed us a penality for not standing square and Matty Smith kicked for the sticks and we won 30-28..phew!
This weekend is mostly going to be tidying and sorting :(
I'm at work. Have been since 7am. Booooo!
Mic took the weekend off work. Last night I bathed, ate pizza, drank wine and slept. Today I will be doing washing, tidying, preparing the final few bits for the NFRS Portsmouth Rat show tomorrow. Tomorrow I'm in charge of cheese toasties and bacon rolls as well as the curiosity table, and Cmot is being entered into the Pets category so fingers crossed for him :)
Good luck Cmot :) And I hope the show goes well.
Managed a couple of hours more sleep :D but woke up with a headache :angry: can't bloody win can I? ;D
Kari is sitting on a train up to London at this moment. I head out from here to meet her shortly, and from there will be heading up to see my Auntie for an hour or so, taking what opportunities I can to see her whilst I can :)
From there probably heading back here and having a lazy afternoon, watching the rugby and whatever. Then in the evening heading out to Brick Lane to enjoy a curry with a friend and her S.O.
Oh if people are out and about in London: Million Women Rise (http://www.thefword.org.uk/blog/2008/01/million_women_r) (Official website (http://millionwomenrise.com/) is down atm)

wellllll it feels like it's been a long week. i've started working on a different part of my job - treatment planning, rather than treatment delivery and it's a real change - it's very interesting, very challenging and a lot of responsibility - been working 7am-5pm days (ish) and getting home and falling asleep on the sofa - so loads to do this weekend :O
got up early this morning to put a wash on, 8am this morning had a driving lesson, got home and made my man breakfast in bed - when the second loads of washing is out i'll have a shower and then we'll probably spend the day noodling around in town (i have to go to the bank and sort out monies and what to do with it - yawn) then have a quiet evening in, watching films with the bunnies, and tomorrow its all about the housework and joining the gym :D
Tis Faysh.
I am giving Lom a lie in this morning as I'm working tonight and the 3 kids will do their best to run rings round her. I'll go back to bed for a couple or three hours later on, get up about half 2 and veg out with coffee. Then it's chippy chips for breakfast and off to work looking after drunk twats who have gotten themselves arrested.
\o/ for abuse and being shouted at for 12 hours!
Then it's the same tomorrow but without the chips for breakfast!

Today I have housework and then working on cars. Weekends are becoming tedious :(
Then in the evening heading out to Brick Lane to enjoy a curry with a friend and her S.O.
If all goes to plan (i.e I get my lazy arse down to the station in time), I should be having a brick lane curry for lunch :)

Don't know how it is for you lot but when i am Angry i change & feel wierd. I have this battle going on inside myself where i can feel the Rage boiling & I can also feel this Dude kind of Scared of what's about to happen. I hate being like this which makes me worse & then i hate the person more who put me in this mood which makes me hate them more, Aaaarrrgggghhhhhh Vicous circle.
I need summit to happen to Snap me out of it, Show me Some Flesh Tak, Go On be a Mate & Save me ;D;D;D

WOW that is SO COOL (serious font size used)
What phrase are you using, You're Nicked Mate or Book'em Danno ;D
Afterwards did you wink at him & say You're my Perp :D
You're coming with me sunshine...
Nah, I did it all proper like :D Made him cry as well.
Thats not my funny story though. We were just booking off at midnight last week when there was a call for anyone and everyone to head to a looovely town where approx 200 travellers were kicking off at a party. I've never seen anything like it and Ive never been so scared in my whole life. Not helped by the fact that my big giant coat is so actually big, giant and new that it's stiff as a board and I cant actually move in it. I'm like a big luminous cheese puff with arms and legs poking out :(
I got proposed to and cursed too :D

Faysh says - There's a batch of student officers started this week, they're the ones with the still clean and shiny florry jackets. Have a roll round on the floor with a scrote or two and you'll look like a proper copper in no time.
Alternatively get malc to drag it behind his 4x4 for a couple of hours.

^^ CLASS :cool:
Stick your Lumi coat on the Sofa & you & the kids sit all over it all night, That'll loosen it up.
I'm saying nothing about the Travellers as like you all know I am probably related ;D
My Tip would be no matter what happens act like a Lady. Most Crims won't hit a Lady but if you act like a Bull Dyke they will Deck you ;)
Softly softly catchy monkey :)
I acted like a coward and hid in the loos :D I'm probably joking ;)

I had a bath this morning to get all the medical tape that's strapped my back together. The physio on Thursday decided to try strapping my right shoulder blade in the correct position to see if it'd sort itself out.
Hurt lots since then but I wanted to last the full 48hrs in case it worked. I'm not sure if it has as it's hurting plenty still while it adjusts to not having the tape.
I also now have a very sore and red back because pretty much the entire of the top half of my back had tape on it, ouch!
When I took it off, I thought there was another load of tape at first because my back was so red ;D

When i was caught Smuggling they ripped a load of merchandise of my chest, Back, thighs Chest etc The Customs Dudes joked that there really was No need to send me to Court ;D
It was real funny & like a scene from a BBC sketch show, The Dudes rather than be ***** though give me plenty of time & pissed themselves as me & my mates stripped ourselves down. Damn i was Red raw after that, Bald of any body hair & Nicked ;D
That day cost me about 3 grand & Taught me Never to **** with Customs :p
Get Well Soon Haly :)
I've been doing an Indiana Jones impression in the loft. Crawling all round it with a torch in my mouth, dragging network cable behind me. Proper itchy from the insulation now.
*scratches*
Yay :) (http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/people/There39s-good-reason-for-getting.3856919.jp)
Just watched Barnsley stuff Chelsea to make it through to the FA Cup semi finals :D Now just waiting for Malc to get online for some PGR action.
Just spoke to my sister, her lovely lovely flat is being repossessed. She just got the letter from the bank, it appears that her landlord has missed his repayment on the mortgage and the bank is now become her landlord. The flat will now get auctioned off to pay off the mortgage and she's going to have to move out and look for another place. I LOVE that flat !
